Karen Robbins' car was pushed under a box truck with her baby boy in the back seat last week.

Her family said it was a miracle Robbins and the infant were not killed.

Robbins’ mother said her daughter was conscious the entire time firefighters feverishly worked to free her from the wreckage.

As her daughter sat there helpless, she feared for the worse.

“It's just now sinking into her what happened. And she's getting the, ‘I shouldn't be here. I shouldn't be alive,’” Robbins' mother Carolyn Colbert said.

Robbins became stuck in a construction zone on I-65.

“She says she looked up in her rear view mirror and saw vehicles coming towards her. She said, ‘I was stuck there. I knew I was going to get hit, but there's was nothing I could do,’” Colbert said.

It was a 6-vehicle pileup.

A tractor-trailer pushed Robbins' 1999 Altima under another truck.

Robbins is seven months pregnant. Her 10-month-old son, David, was in the backseat.

“She says, ‘I started screaming for help. And some people started coming up and said help is on the way.’ Then she started screaming, ‘My baby’ because her 10-month-old son was in the car seat in the back seat. People said, ‘You mean there's a baby in there?’” Colbert said.

The only sign the infant had been in a crash was an abrasion on his neck from a car seat strap.

The baby's father is former EMT Isaac Williams.

Williams said his son was named after David Gundle, his friend and partner with Clark County EMS, who was killed in an ambulance accident in 2010.

“And they say David, it must have been watching over David,” Colbert said.
